“The Frontiers in Education Conference (FIE) is one of the two major international engineering education conferences offered every year. The University of Virginia and Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University will be this year’s host institutions. Over 600 academic and industry representatives are expected. Participants will include university presidents, college deans, department chairpersons, faculty in engineering, engineering technology, and computer science, as well as industry leaders from throughout the country and the world. The majority of the attendees, however, are computer science, engineering and engineering technology faculty”.
